Bulk student report-card generation from spreadsheet data
A focused SaaS tool for schools and teachers that imports student data from Excel or CSV, lets administrators design or upload report-card templates, maps spreadsheet fields to template placeholders, calculates totals and grades, validates missing or inconsistent data, and generates downloadable or emailed PDF report cards in bulk.
The problem
Teachers and schools may spend significant time manually transferring marks, grades, attendance, and remarks into individual report-card templates. Existing school management systems may be too broad or expensive for schools that only need spreadsheet import, template mapping, validation, and bulk PDF generation. The desired workflow is to upload Excel/CSV data, map columns to a customizable report-card template, and generate one correctly formatted document per student.
